inherit. heritage in transformation

The Centre for Advanced Study inherit. heritage in transformation is a BMBF-funded Käte Hamburger Kolleg based at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. It addresses historical, contemporary and possible future transformations in heritage. A dynamic intellectual community, inherit is comprised of a core team of researchers, administrative and support staff, together with scholars, artists and heritage practitioners from across the world, who come each year to the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
Addressing key questions about the roles of heritage and its capacity to bring about wider social, political and environmental transformation, the work of inherit is structured in relation to three major, interrelated currents:decentring the west, decentring the human, transforming value.
